Why all the EG hate? I mean I will agree this whole hype thing is stupid and annoying, but some people find it fun. I've honestly always been a fan of EG, even before SC2 I liked them in wow because they usually didn't run the same FOTM comp that every other team did. I mean EG is a great bunch of guys, a few of them are really good players, and with the exception of incontrol all are nice people, I don't see a reason to hate on them. Also am I missing something, or how are people sure that it's eg and slayers moving in together?

To the person above, I was joking about boxer buying out EG, but I will still say that it is a more likely scenario than that of EG actually buying out slayers.

Well SlayerS is one of few Korean teams that have funding/sponsorship so I'm surprise about this. I was expecting StarTale since ST has started with no sponsors and I don't know their current status.
But yeh SlayerS is one of those teams that polish their players ie. MMA, Ganzi, Keen etc..
HUk trained with oGs and now SlayerS ... Oh my

This doesn't make much sense to me .. Call me crazy but I don't think it's actually SlayerS, then some of the hints don't make sense, especially the whole star thing.

I think it's Startale.

People love to complain. If EG would of just announced it then everyone would of shit brix but they try and have some fun with the community and everyone just has to find a reason to rip on EG, and when I say everyone I mean sour Team Liquid fans who are still mad about Huk.

EG are gonna stay with slayers?
thats not that big tbh. No partnership? no gstl?

Probably a large announcement and they will be at slayers house until their house is ready. new GSTL and GSL seasons are coming up and if they want in they need to be there. So it might be short notice to have their own place ready or there are delays so to make sure they are in korea for the GSL/GSTL seasons they would need somewhere to stay in the interim. Perhaps Slayers or Startale.

We need to remember that the korean news people might be wrong

They haven't announced anything yet so we don't know the full details or if this team-up with Slayers is actually true.

This seems weird. Next to TSL, Slayers seems like the most sponsored/"richest" Korean team. Maybe Boxer wants to spread the word of Slayers even more into the foreign scene by partnering with the biggest foreigner team.

Based on what, makes you say this?


As said on last page, he is just an avid "EG HATER". It's not the first time he has said something stupid though. Sometimes its good to point it out.


Jesus, it's a joke. I thought the emoticon would have made it obvious. -_-

When I have serious stuff to say about EG, it normally takes quite a few paragraphs to cover all the points... and usually not something you could refute so easily.


Yep, just like this post


That one is brief indeed, but very accurate as well. Attention over a hint of an announcement of an announcement is not deserved attention.

Why do people like you even open threads like this? Nobody wants to read anything you say let alone an essay of your complaining. Stop killing eSports and enjoy a huge announcement such as this like everyone else does. An American team moving their team house to Korea is such huge news how can people complain?

ST is actually one of the most well-off teams in terms of sponsors. IM was the one without any sponsors for the longest time, even after NesTea and MVP had won multiple championships.

I mean, in terms of sponsors, teams like IM, SlayerS, ST, and oGs are doing very well. (This is not counting any international partnerships, like coL-MVP or fOu --> FXO.)

Would like to hear few paragraphs why it is not deserved attention. Or is it just because we are talking about EG here?


I don't want to write paragraphs over that. In short, you're giving them free publicity over (at the time I posted that) a scrambled twitter line and a site with big dark texture image. They're using you to build up (free) hype for them and they're giving out nothing in return (for a very long time).

It only makes sense that they receive some (also free) negative backlash as well... just for balance. None of which came from me by the way. ^^

PS. QxG's attempt at doing the same thing seemed even less popular. So it isn't only EG, but they are really rubbing it in and already have a reputation to boot.

3 months ago this news would of shook the world of esports but now, because they tried to hype it, people are taking every chance to say how "oh ya that didn't live up to the hype at all. I mean who cares a NA team house in Korea right?".

Wait, so lets just finish all the clues?

Mmm my favourite kind of post. A blatant EG hater, with no information whatsoever, double-posting.

I'm not an EG hater, I'm a designer who hates tacky crap. T-shirts with 10 logos on the front is tacky. Slayers and Liquid do it right and tastefully.


Lol youve been bashing EG quite a bit. I dont think hiding behind your "Im a designer" is going to save your face. Or is it because youre just TAHT big of a Slayers fan? Because to be fair, most of your distaste for this situation is that "it might ruin slayers."

I responded to your post earlier telling you to relax because Slayers and EG have conflicting sponsors.. so Im a little surprised that this might happen. But slayer's management is a smart team, whatever they came up with... whatever they negotiated.. it'll be for the greater good of both teams. From a slayers fanboy perspective, this should be exciting. From an EG hater perspective, this should be devastating. Which one are you?

I hope they remain completely separate from SlayerS, cause jinro/huk barely got playing time in gstl with ogs.
